Pickups
Customers have mixed opinions about the pickups of the Ibanez S521 S Series Electric Guitar, with some praising their brightness and smoothness while others find them to be less clean than desired. Overall, customers are generally pleased with the guitar's playability, compact body, and comfortable neck design. However, a few have encountered issues with the output jack and intonation out of the box.
Highlights
Quality
Not a thick body which is exactly what i wanted, with some weight, feels very high quality.
That being said, i have wanted the s series for a long time as i was in love with its aesthetics, design and easy play neck design.
Mine based on serial number, was made in 2017 and mahogany body.
The 5 way switch will let us have neck and bridge both or alone, dual coil split, neck parallel.
Price
I did not think a guitar could sound so good for the money.
Not a big deal, as they're cheap.
Shipping
The guitar showed up on time and as always with liberty music, in perfect condition.
The seller, pineville music (nc), shipped it out immediately and it arrived the next day via ups.
Packaging/appearance
But the guitar was very well packed in a sturdy outer box and appropriate material to protect the manufacturer box and the guitar.
Came brand new with original tags and box.
Competitiveness
The fretwork i would say is better than my cv and comparable to the sg - maybe the sg is a bit better.
I like the flatter fret board and jumbo frets on the ibanez better, even if both guitars were the same price.
